9358-WIPER SWITCH CIRCUIT STUCK

For a complete wiring diagram Consult Diagrams/Electrical

Theory of Operation

The Wiper switch input changes when the switch is pushed in a inward position. A stored DTC indicates that the Wiper switch was stuck pushed in a inward position for predetermined value of time, but has since returned to its normal state. An active DTC indicates that the Wiper switch is stuck pushed in a inward position. An active DTC will prevent proper Wiper switch and status indicator function.

- When Monitored:
With the ignition on.

- Set Condition:
If the Wiper switch stays pushed in a inward position for more than a predetermined value of time.





Diagnostic Test

1. VERIFY THAT THE DTC IS STILL ACTIVE
Turn the ignition on.
With the scan tool, erase SCM DTCs.
Push the Wiper Switch in a inward position several times.
Turn the ignition off.
Turn the ignition on, wait 5 seconds.
With the scan tool, read SCM DTCs.
Does the scan tool display this DTC as active?

Yes

- Go to 2

No

- The condition that caused this symptom is currently not present. Check for an intermittent condition by inspecting the related wiring harness for chafed, pierced, pinched, and partially broken wires. Also, inspect the related connectors for broken, bent, pushed out, spread, corroded, or contaminated terminals. Repair as necessary.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Verification Tests.

2. INSPECT FOR AN OBJECT OR SUBSTANCE CAUSING THE WIPER SWITCH TO STAY OR STICK PUSHED IN A INWARD POSITION
Inspect the Wiper Switch for anything that would cause the Wiper switch to stay or stick pushed in a inward position.
Is anything present that would cause the Wiper switch to stay or stick pushed in a inward position?

Yes

- Repair as necessary.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Verification Tests.

No

- Go To 3

3. CHECK FOR NORMAL WIPER SWITCH & STATUS INDICATOR FUNCTION
Turn the ignition on.
Push the Wiper Switch in a inward position several times while observing the Wiper Switch status indicator.
Does the Wiper Switch status indicator turn on and off?

Yes

- Go To 4

No

- Replace the Wiper Switch.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Verification Tests.

4. INSPECT THE WIPER SWITCH FOR DAMAGE
Inspect the Wiper Switch for damage.
Is the Wiper Switch damaged?

Yes

- Replace the Wiper Switch.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Verification Tests.

No

- Test complete.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Verification Tests.
